Overview: This paper presents the development of a new process to desalinate seawater using solar energy. By the proposed process, the solar energy heats airflow up to a temperature between 50 and 80°C. The moderate solar heated air will be humidified by injecting seawater into the air stream. The main feature of the present process is a successive loading of air with vapor up to a relative high humidity, such as 10 or 15 wt. %. As a result, the air volume flowing through the plant can be substantially reduced.
